CORREA SILVA, Pilar  and  GONZALEZ QUIROZ, Germán. Paisaje táctil. Sobre la construcción háptica del paisaje. Rev. cartogr. [online]. 2019, n.99, pp.51-70.  Epub Mar 14, 2022. ISSN 2663-3981.  https://doi.org/10.35424/rcarto.i99.297.

This work considers the problems that persons with blindness face on a daily basis in the handling of spatial and time dimensions in the surroundings they live in, and in how, through the use of suitable technical images, they can set up frameworks of orientation and information for them, thus encouraging them to imagine for themselves the space lived in, including that of the landscape, and their possibilities for action in it.

Concentrating on geographic space from the landscape viewpoint allows us to look carefully at the nature of human life without light, in order to be able to understand spaces beyond the body’s reach as interpreted by the blind, providing an aesthetic approach to that experience.

Keywords : Landscape; technical image; blindness; multisensory design; imagination; tactile sense.
